Just as Li Jie was about to reply, Gu Junru looked at Li Jie with admiration and replied: "Yes, Senior Xiao was my senior when I was in school. He was very good at that time."
Gu Zeshi has been in business for many years and has the ability to observe people's emotions. How could he not know that his daughter admired Xiao Tu when he looked at Gu Junru's performance? His face darkened when someone picked him off. No wonder the last blind date arranged for his daughter didn't follow up. It turned out that her daughter already had a sweetheart. After thinking about it, compared to Li Feng, Li Jie was obviously a better choice because he was young. He is highly valued by Japanese high-level officials at a young age, and is much better than Li Feng, a spy who specializes in dirty work.
However, seeing her daughter like this, she felt a little bit sad. She said with a straight face: "Jun Ru, I will take Xiao Tu to get to know the people attending the meeting. You can go find your mother first."
Gu Junru's expression darkened when he heard this, but he must listen to his father's words, and muttered: "Okay, I understand, Senior Xiao, I will come back to you later."
Seeing this, Li Jie smiled and simply said a good word. Looking at the innocent and cute school girl in front of him, he couldn't help but feel a little sad when he thought about her future ending. An innocent character like her was really not suitable for a sword-fighting secret agent career.
Although there are not many scenes of Xiao Gu in the original work, from the side description, she has always been a drifter, not knowing what is right and what is wrong. When she was in school, she followed the original protagonist to participate in parades, and later entered the secret service department under the arrangement of her parents. The Japanese do things like a piece of duckweed, always drifting with the tide.
Even if her father works for the Japanese, the blame should not be placed on this ignorant little girl. Li Jie still has this awareness. He will learn about her situation later and see if there is any chance to keep her away from the spies. Branch this whirlpool of right and wrong.
Gu Zeshi then led Li Jie through the crowd and introduced the cultural figures attending the banquet to Li Jie one by one.
Li Jie's memory has always been excellent. The more than 50 people attending this meeting wrote down their names and appearances one by one. Among them were some well-known people such as Wan Yong and Chen Hanmo.
This result is really shocking. Previously, the organization had been trying to find out which people in the cultural circles had turned to the Wang Puppet Government. However, the Wang Puppet Government had kept it secret from the participants and had no specific channels to learn the information. In the subsequent exchanges, Li Jie learned from this that only about half of the people came this time, and the rest had not come yet.
Li Jie suppressed the indignation in his heart and made excuses with these people. He quietly inquired about the information of those who did not come. Most of the topics in the conversation were academic exchanges. The occasional mention of one or two words did not arouse the suspicion of others. After all, these people are not professional agents.
Although Ashikaga Shisai has a high status, his knowledge of agent methods is limited, not to mention that Li Jie made up for this knowledge before entering the dungeon. With the development of future theories, dealing with these people is completely overkill.
After some exchanges, everyone was very satisfied. Li Jie was satisfied with the information obtained from the participants of the Japan-China Exchange Conference, and the participants admired Li Jie's knowledge very much.
Li Jie has accumulated experience in two worlds. He quotes arguments and references in exchanges, and everyone who communicates with him is impressed. Ashikaga has always been with Li Jie, and he admires Li Jie's knowledge very much. He secretly thinks that no wonder his uncle appreciates it so much. he.
Although Gu Junru stayed by her mother's side, her attention was always on Li Jie. As a person who had been there, Gu's mother could tell at a glance that her daughter was in love with spring. However, Gu Zeshi had introduced Li Jie to him before, so she felt the same way. Happy to see the result, he saw a short rest over there and saw his daughter's impatient look, so he spoke.
"Jun Ru, hurry up and find your senior Xiao."
Gu Junru blushed at Mother Gu's words. She took Mother Gu's arm and said coquettishly, "Mom! If you keep doing this, I won't pay attention to you anymore!"
Seeing this, Gu's mother smiled and said: "Okay, okay, I won't make fun of you anymore. What girl doesn't have a child? My mother has been here for a long time. No wonder you don't like Section Chief Li who I introduced to you last time..."
When Gu Junru saw Gu's mother revealing her thoughts, she lowered her head shyly, but her hand became stronger and she kept shaking Gu's mother's arm.
"I won't say anything anymore. I won't say anything anymore. You should go over there quickly, otherwise they will start communicating again in a while."
Gu Junru panicked when she heard this. She was so happy to see Li Jie this time that she couldn't express it enough in words. At first, she was still a little resistant to serving the Japanese, but after seeing that Li Jie was the same as her, That little bit of resistance disappeared in an instant. An outstanding person like the senior would definitely not do anything wrong.
"Senior Xiao, are you tired? Why are you sitting here alone?"
Li Jie was sitting alone on the sofa memorizing the specific information about the participants. Gu Junru's words made him take back his thoughts.
"Yeah, I'm a little tired. Let's sit here and take a rest. I didn't expect to meet you here today. By the way, what are you doing now?"
Gu Junru replied crisply: "I am now working as a mail and reception clerk in the Special Service Department. Senior Xiao, what about you?"
Li Jie said: "I am now working as a consultant for the Japanese. Why did your parents let you work in the Secret Service?"
When Gu Junru heard this, she thought of her parents' expectations and said with a dejected face: "My father has tried many things to get me into the upper echelons of the government. Maybe I don't have the ability to be an official and can only be a small delivery clerk. Unlike you, Senior Xiao, who is an excellent person." People are excellent wherever they go.”
Li Jie saw the dejected Xiao Gu and comforted him: "What's wrong? Are you not satisfied with your job now? Are you interested in changing your job?"
Gu Junru's eyes lit up when he heard this: "Senior Xiao, what can you do?"
However, he seemed to have thought of something and his expression darkened again: "My parents may not agree."
Li Jie said calmly: "As long as you agree, let me tell your parents that your personality is really not suitable for working in the Secret Service."
"Then...then I'll listen to Senior Xiao."
Li Jie saw this and said, "Okay, then you wait for my news."
At the end of the month, Li Jie returned to the New Asia Hotel with Ashikaga after the banquet. The information gathered at today's banquet still needs to be passed on to the organization as soon as possible. The China-Japan Exchange Conference is about to begin, and there is not much time left. Although the stipulated meeting time has not yet arrived, due to the special circumstances, Li Jie decided to go to Jiren Library tomorrow to hand over this information to the organization.
The next day, Li Jie rushed to the library on the pretext that he needed to look up information. However, his first stop was not the Jiren Library, but the Municipal Library. He planned to do this even if he knew that no one was following Li Jie, just in case someone did. Investigate his whereabouts, and then the library's borrowing records can prove it for himself. After borrowing a few books from the municipal library, Li Jie rushed to Jiren Library.
